The interval from a written pitch to the pitch the instrument sounds, one
entry per built-in instrument.
Each value is an interval name as parseInterval reads it, in the
written-to-sounding direction: a leading '-' marks an instrument that
sounds below what it reads, which is most of them. A transposition wider than
an octave is named by its compound interval rather than reduced, because the
octave is exactly what separates the tenor saxophone from the soprano and the
baritone from the alto.
Example
import { TRANSPOSING_INSTRUMENTS } from'@libraz/libcantus'; TRANSPOSING_INSTRUMENTS.clarinetA; // '-m3' — sounds a minor third lower TRANSPOSING_INSTRUMENTS.piccolo; // 'P8' — sounds an octave higher
